BRITAIN’S Got Talent is set for new fix row as professional comedian Suzi Wild appears on this weekend’s show.
The ITV talent show has already been plagued by fix rumours after professional singer Loren Allred made her debut on the programme this month.
Now the show is set for more controversy as comedian Suzi – who previously won The Edinburgh Festival – will take to the stage in a bid to impress the judges and the millions watching at home.
Contestant Suzi will pull some of her best impressions out of the bag – including Cheryl Cole, Sharon Osbourne, Kirstie Allsopp, Joanna Lumley and Gordon Ramsay.
Suzi started on the circuit in 2010 and has an impressive comedy CV – including making the finals of major national comedy competitions, voicing popular comedy podcasts and hosting a radio comedy show on OnFM.
Despite her success, the judges were in fits of laughter at Suzi’s comedy sketch which features the Queen, Janet Street-Porter, Gemma Collins and Lorraine Kelly.

Feeling inspired, Amanda Holden showcased her own talent when she impersonated the Scottish breakfast host Lorraine.
“It was pretty funny. The judges couldn’t stop laughing at her impersonation,” a source told the Daily Star.
It comes after BGT viewers speculated that Simon Cowell has “already signed” singer Loren Allred as the fix row continues.
The ITV contestant, who has had a stellar singing history with stints on The Voice and The Greatest Showman, was forced to address fix rumours after her appearance on the new series.
But now fans have speculated that the participant may have landed a brand new deal with the music mogul, 62, before the series has even ended.
One wrote: “Made the mistake of giving the new series of #BGT a go. When your big showstopper moment is somebody who’s already had a chart hit with the song they’re performing, it isn’t being a talent show any more. It’s just promoting artists already signed to Cowell.”
Another posted: “I thought it was Britain’s Got Talent, not America’s got established recording artists. Already signed to Simon’s label, just a bull**** promo.”
A third fumed: “#BGT #Bull**** a professional singer! She won’t win as Simon already has her signed up! The winner will be the real loser! Just to please the public.”
Another added: “So Simon’s already signed this woman then!! #fixed #BGT #thegreatstshowman”
The Celeb Report revealed how Loren found major success in the US after singing the anthem Never Enough in global hit movie The Greatest Showman.
Yet it has now come to light how she also received expert assistance from Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine while on The Voice.
She even competed to win a recording contract on the US version of the talent show in 2012, telling the coaches her occupation was “pianist and wedding singer”.
Loren has since defended her experience in the music industry – insisting: “I am an unsigned, independent artist still trying to make a name for myself.”
Loren said: “Even though I have spent a lot of years in the music industry, people don’t know who I am. Over all these years I’ve been fighting for my chance to be known and to make it.
“The opportunity to sing “Never Enough” evolved from being a session singer in the choir, and even though the song was a big success, people still think that the actress sang it.
“I have never gotten the opportunity to tell my story. That’s never happened for me.”
Britain’s Got Talent continues this Saturday, 8pm on ITV.
